No place in rugby for anti-doping cheats says SRU medic
Scotland rugby medic Dr James Robson has stressed the importance of players taking individual responsibility in the wake of a former Marr prop being banned after testing positive for steroids.
Andrew Acton has been suspended from all sport for three years and nine months after failing a test taken during one of the Ayrshire BT Premiership club’s training sessions last August.
The 22-year-old South African is only the fourth player in Scottish rugby to test positive since a link-up with UK Anti-Doping was formalised in the 2009-10 season.
